Be Green and Help Your Fellow WOMAN!

One might do a great deed by taking a bag of old clothes to the local Goodwill or Salvation Army. But ladies, we can offer something more– BRAS! If you have any bras that have been collecting dust in your dresser, give them a wash and ship or drop them off at a bra recycling center. Here are some awesome organizations to chose from:

Career Closets is a non-profit organization in northern California helping women dress better for their job in donated business clothing. http://www.careercloset.org/

The Bra Recyclers buy and sell recycled bras, which are re-distributed through exporters and organizations to developing countries around the world. http://www.brarecycling.com/

Dress for Success Worldwide has more than 100 locations or DFS affiliates dedicated to implementing the DFS mission–promote economic independence for disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and career development tools– at the community level.

Lastly, drop by your local women and children shelters for there is most likely a woman in need of the support and comfort of a bra. We might take these garments for granted, but others see them as a gift to be treasured. Spread the love!
